Don't Waste Your Life

Recently a lot's been going on in my life.  As I've found myself growing up some, I've been faced with fear, confusion and decisions.  I haven't really stopped to think about it all, and then I did.  I found myself on a path I had set; a path that I wanted to follow.  I hadn't been seeking God like I should.  I hadn't been asking Him what His will was for my life.  I started looking, searching for Him and what He wanted for my life.  I started reading parts of "Don't Waste Your Life" by John Piper, and realized that I was going through my life with a "whatever" attitude.  I've been living a lazy, self-centered life, completely blinded to others and what's going on around me.  Let's just say that I've had a wake-up call.  While I've been sitting at home doing nothing, people have been risking their lives to spread Christ.  While I've been wasting time on face book and the internet, there are people who are dying for Christ.  When I step back and look at my life I have to ask "What exactly have I been doing with my life?"  God gave me this life to use to glorify Him and further His kingdom, and I've used it for myself!  I've been ignoring my Creator and Provider who gave me this life.  I mean, He's always gonna be there, right?  He wasn't top priority in my life, because I knew He's always there.  I've been too comfortable in my Christian life.  What if I died tomorrow??  What if I died today??  If someone asked if I had wasted my life, I would have to honestly answer them that yes, I have.  That's something that's really hard to own up to, but until I was able to own up to that, I couldn't do anything to change it.  I want people to look at me and see Christ.  I want to further His kingdom in any way I can.  I don't want to get to the end of my life and realize I've wasted it.  So, I'm going to do something about it.  With God's help I'm going to change the way I live.  I want to wake up every morning and my first thought to be "What can I do for Christ today?"  It's going to be hard, but Christ is worth it.  So just think.  Have you made the same mistake I have?  Are you wasting your life?
